About the Role
As a Manufacturing Process Engineer, you will bridge the gap between complex engineering designs and efficient production execution. You will play a pivotal role in optimizing manufacturing workflows, driving cost-reduction initiatives, and ensuring high-quality output for critical aerospace components.
Responsibilities-
Translate engineering specifications and technical drawings into actionable production plans and Visual Work Instructions (VWI).
-
Design and implement efficient tooling and cellular manufacturing layouts to maximize throughput and minimize waste.
-
Lead root cause analysis and corrective action efforts to resolve non-conformance issues and improve process reliability.
-
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to support New Product Introduction (NPI) cycles and validate process manufacturability.
-
Analyze production data to establish time standards and develop Work Combination Sheets (WCS) for standardized operations.
-
Act as a technical liaison to provide engineering support for internal production teams and external supplier processes.
-
Drive continuous improvement projects by identifying and executing cost-reduction opportunities across the manufacturing floor.
Qualifications-
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field with 3+ years of relevant experience, or Master’s degree with 2+ years.
-
Proficiency in Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) and technical documentation.
-
Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret complex geometric tolerances and statistical data.
-
Excellent communication skills with the ability to present technical information to diverse audiences.
-
Must meet ITAR/EAR compliance requirements for access to restricted technical data.
-
Experience in high-paced aerospace manufacturing environments.
-
Technical knowledge of metal fabrication processes including forming, welding, machining, and heat treating.
-
Familiarity with MRP/ERP systems and material planning logic.
-
Understanding of Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) methods and aerospace-grade materials.
